I have been working at Guidance Software full-time (more than 5 years)

Pros

Highly employee centric (R&D department) environment. Preference leans towards happy work life. Time off policies are commensurate with the industry. Fairly flexible work hours.

Cons

Company with much greatness ahead, but is currently working through the growing pains associated with previous success in a highly competitive industry.

Advice to ManagementAdvice

Continue to focus on the end user first. This has always been the mantra a highly successful companies that build cutting edge products. The open-minded culture of process improvement should also continue (this has been a great evolution lately) - do not rest of the laurels of the improvements made thus far.
